We are more common than many thing. However, we also tend to self select our groupings. We are a lot less common than WE feel we are.
Basically, about 50% of my local makerspace are ND. That is way higher than the general populous. However, even within family, work, or random friend groups, I still see an abnormally high percentage. I basically self select for weird people and have done all my life. This seems to be common for many of us.
devil’s advocate, it does have some logic to it.
An ambiguous report of an unconscious person could be the result of a crime/attack. Having the police turn up quickly helps with that significantly.
As others have said, the police could have been faster to respond.
Some people, when coming out of a fit, etc, can be aggressive. E.g. A friend is, apparently a “puncher” when she comes out of a general anaesthetic. She makes it a point to warn the nursing team, when possible. She’s still given out a few black eyes. Having police respond makes sense. They are, supposedly, trained in safe handling of an aggressive person. This makes them ideal for containing someone till their brain reboots, and stops panicking.
Unfortunately, it sounds like the officers here forgot their duties and training. I’m often horrified to hear how american police tend to operate. It’s the sort of thing you don’t see much of in most developed countries.
